Alaska Huts invites you to join us for Wood Stock: an event for huts enthusiasts to help prep Manitoba Cabin for the winter season. We'll be stocking the woodshed with several cords of wood and prepping the grounds, yurts, and cabin for winter. Woodstock is an optionally overnight event: stick around and enjoy a bowl of AK Huts chili, a campfire brew or two, and a morning cup of coffee.

Bring friends and family to Manitoba Cabin to share the workload and excitement for Alaska Huts!

RSVP by emailing mailbox@alaskahuts.org to save a bunk or tent spot and to ensure a hearty portion of chili!

FAQs:

Can I stay the night at Manitoba Cabin after Woodstock?

- Yes! If you plan to stay the night at Wood Stock you may either pitch your own tent or reserve a bunk. If you intend to stay the whole night please e-mail mailbox@alaskahuts.org. Bunks are limited and will be assigned on a first-come first-serve basis. If you don't plan to stay the night, please still RSVP to get a bowl of chili (and let us know if you are vegetarian!).

How much are bunks?

- Bunks are FREE! We do ask that you commit at least 3 hours of volunteer time in exchange for a bunk.

Can I bring my dog?

- Well-behaved dogs that get along well with people (and other dogs) are welcome to join.

What tools should I bring?

- We're always grateful for wheelbarrows and dollys. Dress to work outside with work shoes and gloves!

What's for dinner?

- We'll be having a potluck! Huts staff will provide the main course: chili, both with and without meat. We ask that you also bring a side dish, dessert, or drinks (or all 3!) to share.

Where should I park my car?

- Park at Mile 48 of the Seward Highway and follow the path to Manitoba.

Join us for our Spring Work Weekend! We'll need all hands on deck to haul and stack firewood, re-gravel the pathways, and get Manitoba ready for a new season!

Bring friends and family for a night out on the grounds and help Alaska Huts keep Manitoba looking fresh. From 12-3 for Kids to Parks Day we have fun activities planned, so be sure to bring the little ones.

There will be beer, drinks, snacks, and grilling materials (think brats and buns!). Please bring something to share for a community potluck meal, your working boots, and gloves. There will be coffee provided for the following morning, but please plan to bring your own breakfast!

We have limited bunks available**, so please RSVP to mailbox@alaskahuts.org for a bunk and grilled goodies!

**Spending the night? Reserve a bunk ASAP, and be sure to bring a sleeping bag and pillow. Tenting is also permitted, but remember that NO food or smelly items are to be left in tents.

Come join us at the BP Energy Center on October 18th for our Annual Public Meeting! This is your chance to meet board members and staff, hear what Alaska Huts has been up to over the past year and ask questions about where we are heading in the future.

It's been an exciting year, with lots going on down at Manitoba Cabin, progress being made on our future planning out at Glacier Discovery and exciting new partnerships. We look forward to sharing all of our news, and hearing from our members and hut users!
